    I have done a full traverse of the big cave now. It goes at 7b+/-7C approx. 35 metres.

    Amazing what you can accomplish with a phone camera now. Great shot and congrats on the route.

    Thanks James! I believe the photographer stitched the pictures together on his laptop.
    Indeed was very happy to send the route. The start is very psychological with a potential nasty rocky fall. took me quite a while to commit to that first move :)

    Excellent Pic/s... Altho I was tempted to take a point off for using the word "send" !!! Grrr!!
    Still a 5 tho ;-)

    Nice footwork ;-)
    Do you need lots of chalbags for a day's DWS?

    Excellent shot btw

    I think it would be a 5 if he kept his feet on, but I let that slide :)

    Hahhaa...I love the comments. Indeed a campfest here. My mind is still freaked out when having my feet above my head when doing DWS. A recipe for a head first fall that is :)
    And about my spelling mistakes...what can I say, English isn't my mothertong (or is it mother tongue ;) ?)

    About the chalkbags. I have one which is especially for DWS. The inside part dries within 15 minutes.
